ABSTRACT:
An animal watering apparatus (10) includes a dish (12) covered with a lid (20). The lid (20) includes an opening (22). A wheel (24) is rotatably mounted to the lid (20) in an upright orientation and extends above the lid (20) through the opening (22) and into the dish (12) to a position near the bottom surface (18) of the dish (12). The outer circumferential surface (40) of the wheel (24) is covered with projections or ridges (42) which efficiently bring water out of the dish (12) as the wheel (24) rotates as a result of being licked by the animal. A ridge opening (48) down a central region (50) of the outer circumferential surface (40) of the wheel (24) guides water back into the opening (22) where the water (21) falls into the dish (12).
